Sirach 47:20

¹⁸By the name of the Lord God, which is called the Lord God of Israel, thou didst gather gold as tin and didst multiply silver as lead.

¹⁹Thou didst bow thy loins unto women, and by thy body thou wast brought into subjection.

— Sirach 47:20 —

²¹So the kingdom was divided, and out of Ephraim ruled a rebellious kingdom.

²²But the Lord will never leave off his mercy, neither shall any of his works perish, neither will he abolish the posterity of his elect, and the seed of him that loveth him he will not take away: wherefore he gave a remnant unto Jacob, and out of him a root unto David.
